Does it get powered from the computer through the USB cable?

Yes it does, but on the cord it has two USB ends to plug in. My laptop has 2 USB ports but on opposite sides which then I had to buy a USB plug in with all together. Do not know why it is like that but nevertheless works.

Yes. Although the cable provided requires two USB ports to power. The cable is standard though and I found I was able to power the drive with one USB port from a very short cable.

No, unlike the USB portable monitors that do. This one connects to the HDMI and uses the USB for power only. I even used this on my android tablet (has HDMI out)!

It has a separate power supply, unfortunately it is not USB-powered.Hope this helps & enjoy.

No, it powers up on it's own when connected to the USB cable that is provided with the package.

It's powered from the computer's usb port. It has two usb cord connections, one of which must be plugged into a powered usb port on your computer. Check that your computer has at bleast one powered usb port. Most likely it has several.

no..it uses a laptop power cord style of connector. even if you were able to configure the cable to a usb, it will only output 10 watts at most since most computer usb output 5v and at most 2 amps. i cant remember exactly but its 12-15volts dc and 3-5 amps input for this amplifier.

No it has three built in outputs (the button to switch one input to the other and then the two USB outs to the computers) on the front there is a DC input, but mine is not pulled into a power source and has been working fine for the last year.

Hi - no, it doesn't, unfortunately. You have to plug it into a USB port, either on your computer or if you have some kind of outlet or power strip with a USB port on it.

It is powered by the USB connection and doesn't require an additional power supply. It is not wireless and must be connected with the USB cable.

Yes . . . otherwise it will be sourcing power from your PC, and it is designed to you it's own power source.

It does. The USB cable has one end which connects to the monitor. The other end has two standard USB connections in case you need to use two USB ports to get sufficient power. I only needed one, so the other is simply left not connected.

yes it comes with a usb cable to connect to your computer and a power adapter to supply the power. Works great.

Hello - sorry I can't remember if it comes with a usb cable. I already had extras and they tend to get mixed up. It does obviously come with an external power supply.

Yes, it charges from the usb port. I wish it did come with a power adapter, I wish it did come with one, none of the adapters I have fit it.
